Oftentimes, working through a long day can make you forget basic necessities, like keeping yourself hydrated. Home and technology blog Unplggd suggests setting alarms throughout the day to remind you to drink some water.

The idea is pretty simple, use your favorite alarm application on your phone to set daily reminders to get away from your desk, take down a glass of water and return to work. While many people are safe with drinking whenever they're thirsty, some might find it helpful to get a little push every two hours or so, especially if they're busy. Photo by: Yos C. Wiranata.
